He tk out her pallu from his watch,quitely walked inside da hospital while she followed him.
In doctor cabin- she cud feel da tension & lack of communication btwn dm bt she ws nt having courage of askng any detail or question to Mr.Khurana,who gave heavy donation to hospital evry year.
Nurse took Geet out for test,Maan quickly broke his silence:doctor sb theek to hai naa?
Doctor:buht weakness hai,lekn itne khtre ki koi baat nhi.phr bhi aap ki tasalli k lye test kr rahi hen,jese hi report aay gi,aap ko inform krdungi.

Maan:aap vitamins ki suppliments likh den,sb se achi medicine likh den,khane pene ka manual,daily time table e.t.c sb likh den.
Doctor smiled:aap k hote hue is sb ki koi zrurt nhi hai..i mean is waqt unhe sirf aap ki zrurat hai,aap k pyar,care,time ki.
He quitely lowered his gaze.
Doctor continue:phr bhi men kuch medicne likh deti hun.

Maan slowly:thanks. .men medicne le kr aata hun,tum car k paas jao.
He went out from there,she was about to follow him.Doctor call made her stop.
Geet luk her puzzled.Doctor:wese to hmara doctor aur patient ka rishta hai lekin ek aurat hone k naate men aap se kuch kehna chahti hun. .zindagi hmare paas ooper wale ki amant hoti hai,aur is halat men ye farz dugna ho jata hai kyunke ek jaan jo apne lye kuch bhi nhi kr skti us ki zindagi sirf apni maa pr depend krti hai.. is halat men insecurities hoti hen,lekin do remember aane wala bcha do log ko alag nhi krta blke unhe ek krta hai. so kush raho aur apna khyal rkho. .theek hai?
Geet nodded in reply.
After buying medicine,he walked toward his car.His eyes fall on Geet who was so engrossed in staring smthng.He followed her gaze which was fixed on a loving couple...Man's arm protectively wrapped around his woman waist.She lovingly kept hands on her big tummy,leaned her head on his chest.He whisperd smthng in her ear,dy both brust into heartly laugh.Maan looked away from them,went near Geet,to gt her attention cleared his throat.Little smile dt her lips were wearing had completly vanished now.He opened car door for her,she quitely sat inside.
While driving he again stole glance of her,she was luking out throw glass window bt her mind was sm whr else.Her lips were quite bt her face changing multiple emotions.He finally broke da killing silence btwn them"tumhari maa yahien hai naa city hospital men,milna hai unse?"
She still ddnt luk at him,to his disappointment she nodded in no.He annoyed thought:men kese ise khush kr skta hun,jb ye khush hona hi nhi chahti..
He determintly:Geet. .
Her eyes open in surprise,first time she heard her name from his mouth & she ddnt understand why it sound more beautiful.He gatherd all his courage,continue:kal. .Kal jb men ghar aaya to kaka ne btaya tum ne do din se kuch nhi khaya. . .men ghbra gya tha. . .gussa aa gya tha mujhe-long pause-jo kuch bhi hua nhi hona chahey tha...buht galt kya hai mene tumhare sath. lekin jo kuch bhi hua wo bdal to nhi skta...kuch waqt ki baat hai...Phr chli jana tum. . .He knew hs broken words were nt mkng any sense bt he silence were killing him.
He added:kal raat ko mere aur tumhare beech jo hua. .He paused as she turned to face him.Her eyes met wid him. .eyes whch had no questions,no complain bt smthng else.Something so big dt he felt lost of words.His ringing cell brought dm in world.
Seema on phone:shukr hai bhagwan ka sb theek hai,men mandir jaa rhi hun,beta tum aa jao phr baat krte hen. apna khyal rkhna,aur Geet ka bhi.
She cut da call,smiled.Dev enterd in her room:mom bhai kahan hen?buht zruri kaam hai!
Seema annoyd:khud bhi kuch kr lya kro.
Dev laughed,fall on bed:nhi. .jo bhai ne kya hai wo men nhi kr skta. us ladki se shadi ki baat kya aam hui hi gaun men,log unhe poojne lg gaeyn hen,wo jo HP hai naa,aadhi keemat par zameen bech dii hme.pagal emotional log.
Seema proudly:tumhari mom ghate ka sauda nhi krti.
Dev agree:wo to hai. .mujhe ab bhi yakeen nhi aata kya game khela hai aap ne.sb kuch perfectly hogya.
Seema:aur aage bhi perfect hoga. .jis din Maan ka bcha is dunya me pehli saans lega wo din Maan ki zindgai ka aakhri din hoga.
She scrtscly:me Maan ki zindagi to kb ki khtam kr chuki ho agar us k marne se sari property trust men naa jati.Rudr mujhe kehte the men Maan ki sauteli maa hun is lye us k sath bura vehvar krti hun,us se fark krti hun.Par tum to us k sage bete the phr bhi usne tumhare sath itni bri naa insafi ki..Sb kuch Maan k naam krdya... koi fayda nhi hua,hoga whi jo men chahti hun. Ab Maan k marne pr us ki property trust men nhi,us k bche k naam par jaey gi jise tum adopt kro ge..aur sb kuch tumhara ho jay ga.
She turned to face Dev:neeche chlte hen,wo log aate hi honge.
Dev:kon?
Seema:Maan,Geet. .shehr gaey the doctor k paas,aate hi honge.
Dev in disbelief:kya?aap ko lgta hai aesa krna theek hai?agr us ne Maan ko sb kuch bta dya,un k beech men sch men koi rishta bn gya?
Seema:agr kuch hona hota to pehle hi hojata aur mujhe aur tumhe ye sb krna bhi nhi parta.wo ladki buht hi darpok aur bewakuf hai,us men itni himat nhi hai.wo apni maa ki jaan ko khtre men nhi dal skti.agr us men itni akal hoti to wo Maan ki aankhon men apne lye feelngs dkh skti. uski isi naa smjhi aur masumiat ki wja se to mene use chunna tha. aur Maan ko yehi lagta hai us ne us k sath zbrdsti ki hai islye wo us se nafrt krti hai.itni nafrt k wo bche ko bhi nuksan puhncha skti hai. In k beech men kuch theek nhi ho skta aur agr hua bhi to Maan ki zindagi aur choti ho jay gi.
Dev:us raat jb achank Geet gayb ho gai to mujhe lga sb kya dhra bekaar. aap ne mujhe btana to tha us ko aap ne kidnap kraya hai.aap ne mujhse bhi ek mnth tk ye baat chupaii.
Seema:kese btati?dewaron ki kaan hote hen. mujhe pehle khud to confirm krna tha.
Dev:just suppose,agr itna sb kr k wo pregnnt na hoti,to aap kya krti?
Seema:use chor dete. .aur phr gaun wale us k sath whi krte jo hr gayb ho kr aane wali ladki k sath krte hen. Maan kbhi aesa hone hi nhi deta wo khud us se shadi kr leta. tb bhi hme hmari manzil milti,bs rasta thoda lamba hota.
Dev hugged her from behind:u r best mom. .pta nhi phr bhi mujhe dar lagta hai us Maan ko pta chl gya to kya hoga. men neeche ja rha hun,aap bhi aa jao.
He went while Seema whisperd in her heart:kisi ko pta nhi chle ga,jese kisi ko ye pta nhi chla k mene hi inke baap ko zehar de kr mara hai.
In evening,Radha came in Geet room wid jug of milk.Her voice broke Geet thought:apne pati k khyalon men khoii hui ho?
Geet tried to gave her smile.
Radha:chlo dudh pee kr so jao.wese to maalik kal shaam tk hi aaeynge.

Geet hesitatly:mujhe kuch chahey. . .kya tum mujhe laa kr dogi?
Radha:haan bolo.
Geet:kisi ko btao gi to nhi?
Radha:nhi. .vada.
In late night,Maan enterd inside his room.Lights were still on,his eyes instantly luk for her.Finally his eyes fall on her.She was sitting on swing,in terrace.She shocked look at him,throw smthng dwn from her lap,quickly hide smthng behind her back.
Ignoring her,he grabbed his towel walked toward washroom,paused.He again look at her through glass door.Her eyes turned big in fear,he instantly walked to her:kya kr rhi ho?
She nodded in no,step back in horror.He grabbed her arm:kya hai tumhare hath men?dikhao?
He yelled:men kuch puch rha hun?
Tears rolled down from her eyes in pain & fear.He forcefully grabbed her wrists,pulled dm infrnt of him.He frozed seeng wool & woolen stick in her hands.
She spoke btwn sobs:Radha ne bola aap shehr gaeyn hen. . .mujhe dar lag rha tha akele men. .men moze(socks) bna rhi thi...bcho ko bahr ki pehne se kharish(allergy) ho jati hai. . .aage buht thand hogi,men to hungi nhi us k paas.
He left her arms,turned his back.He felt suffocated in guilt.He frustated ran fingers in his hairs.He turned to face her,embarrasd:men. .mujhe lga tum
She lukd up,softly:men "Aap" k bche ko koi nuksan nhi puhnchaun gii, kuch bhi nhi hone dungi.
He felt cold bucket of water,he was feelng so low,so cheap.How over possesive & insecure he became in love of his child.Holdng her arm she passed away from him.He ddnt miss da promise in her tone nor he missed hidden pain in da word of "Aap"
She was sittng on bed,hugging her knees.She straightend herself as he stood near da bed.He brought hs hand forwd:tumhe ye kaam aata hai naa,aesa bna skti ho.
She hesitatly tk it 4rm her hand.It was a small black socks,white dots on it.
Maan:ye meri socks hai.He slowly added:meri maa ne bnaii thi mere lye.
She luk him surprised.He asked:achi hai naa?
She quickly admird it:buht achi hai.
Maan:ek hi thi islye mene pehni nhi hai. .dosri bnane ka meri maa ko mauka nhi mila.
She luk hm cnfuse.His voice unwillngly bcm so heavy in pain:mere janam pr meri maa ki maut hogai thi.
She luk hm in shock while he was lost in his world.
Lost in thoughts he continued:us ne mujhe dekha bhi nhi tha. . .mene use ek baar bhi nhi chua. wo mujh se dour buht dour chli gaii,hmesha k lye.
"maa to maa hoti hai,wo dil men rehti hai.aur jo cheez dil men rehti hai wo kbhi dour nhi hoti wo hmesha paas hoti hai"
She paused as he luk her surprised.She lowerd her gaze,worried dt she had spoke beyond her limit.He walked away.
.

'ek pal k lye mujhe aesa lga jese wo mujhe nhi khud ko tasalli de rhi ho',he said while starng at stars.mera bcha bhi meri trha bad kismat hai,wo bhi bger maa k rhe ga jese men rha tha. par mere pass to aap the;world k best dad aur men?. .
